It's great isn't it? He's got such a wonderfully visual way of writing.

I'm sitting at this bar in DC drinking and reading Apollinaire's poems. I'm lonely as fuck

I'm in Canada, unfortunately. But yeah, The Zone is the first poem that incorporates "cinematic vision." The jumps between stanzas are like cuts between scenes in a montage. Other forms have "jumps" as well, like the Persian ghazal, but it is more didactic, or tends to be at least. In The Zone, the poetic persona is a disembodied eye, like a film camera. That last line never fails to take my breath away, either.
